By Haitian artist Herold Pierre Louis

TIMOUN Rezistans is the name of a group / youth movement artists who created assemblages from waste
found in their neighborhood - a small compact area.

Ghetto main artery background Grand Rue in the heart of the Haitian capital. Together Timoun Rezistans perpetuate the aesthetic of the art of collage Rezistans atis referring to the Afro-Haitian
history of the present, as well as forms of renewal through the hip-hop culture and digital techniques.

When we sold a painting he helps us with this money we pay our school, we are helping money too.

Milord Jean Muller was born (March 1996)

I started in art in 2008 at the age of 12 years alongside timoun Rezistans in this small community but which imposes their work thanks to their talent. I grew up in a family composed of 4 sisters
and a brother, a wise family espectueux who always asks their children education as a custom carrier and exhibition of the artist Jean Muller Milord has participated in several exhibition in
Haiti such as; Embassy of France, FOKAL, cultural foundation creation, cemeteries port au prince, and others.

But my first for me is to have to do a great and this beautiful exhibition in Denmark in the city by a staff curator kuratorisk Aktion. thanks to the staff improve these 5 young little.

also with Timoun Rezistans, I participated in all exhibitions Timoun Resistant did.

Mario Pierre-Louis (born 1994) is an artist who works from the Grande Rue - Timoun Rezistans. I used recycled materials and items found in the local area to constract sculptures and assembly art

Its object depicts the stories of Vudou beliefs imaginative new ways.

His art is my only means of support for food and education. My trip to Denmark in March 2015 for an exhibition and workshops with Rezistans Timoun inspired him to get his work recognized and
exhibited internationally.

My dream is to exhibit his work internationally.

I'm Herold Pierre Louis, I am a young Haitian artist age 19 My journey as an artist began in 2006 when I started working art at the age of 6 I make my first work that I I sold for $ 5, I was very
happy, it's the first time I sold a work. my imagination comes into the air and after I create the works. My life is a little difficult in Haiti for me and my friends Timoun Rezistans because we
work a lot without any reward ... Our lives are a little difficult, sometimes you can not go to school, when me and my friends sell a work of art that paid the school.

Objective and our thinking:

So we decided to form a group, its name is Timoun Rezistans We are 5 young artists, we do collaborations together, these life is like that, we went to visit Denmark to experience.

I'm voting them coz the timoun Resistans make alot of sacrifice to become a better artists worldwise,good job for the timoun and we have a trustworthy guys if you arrive to think to do this project
with the timoun Rezistans.
